I ran the biggest 12 volt motor guide on a 16' Lund. I always like the simple hand control. Much simpler less things to break. I think it was 36 lbs of thrust. Used to pull that boat around easy. Big question is where are you going to mount it. On the bow I think you can get away with less lbs. It was great for adjusting a drift, like when fluking. I know your boat, my Dad works for your brother. Does it have a front deck? If so a bow mount would be the way to go. Keep in mind the 2 batteries needed for a 24 volt will add a decent amount of weight.
